Dr. Larry Connor, author of Queen Rearing Essentials, Bee Sex Essentials, Increase Essentials, Bee-sentials and frequent contributor to the American Bee Journal and Bee Culture, is coming to Springfield, OH. Connor will present two topics on May 9, 2013 to area beekeepers. The first presentation will cover the work and importance of the juvenile honey bee exploring the role and impact of nurse bees within the colony. A second session will cover making increases through Nucs. Nucs are a valuable tool for the beekeeper interested in expansion or deadout replacements, the availability of locally adapted overwintered bees, or queen rearing.
